What does the Bible say about sin as a disease?

Answered in 1 source

The Bible depicts sin as an incurable disease affecting all humanity due to our sinful nature inherited from Adam.

In scripture, sin is viewed as a fatal and hereditary disease, inherently corrupting since the fall of Adam. It is fatal to both body and soul, leading to spiritual death as stated in Romans 6:23: 'the wages of sin is death.' Additionally, this disease is disabling; it constrains our ability to worship God, as seen in Job 14:4, which asks, 'How can anyone be clean who is born of a woman?' Thus, the severity of sin underscores the need for a divine physician.
